The Bible says that all things work together for our good, we that love God and are called according to His purpose. All things can work for our benefit. Is this really true? How can failure, dire circumstances, setbacks, problems, broken relationships, and on and on and on, work out for our good? Setbacks alone can be devastating to a young man’s career plans. In times like these we need to recognize that God is greater than our setbacks. As a matter of fact, Jesus is Lord over all creation. His name is higher than any other name that is named. That simply means if we can name our failure—setback, broken relationship, fear, sickness, problems beyond our control—the name of Jesus supersedes it. As we began to speak name of Jesus in authority over our failures, failure must succumb to glory of God.

Remember this. We can learn from our failures. We learn that Jesus is in control of our lives, even through bad times. His authority is above every power and authority in heaven and earth, turning all our failings to good in time. With this in mind, dear believer, keep fighting good fight of faith. Stay course. Jesus is soon coming. Today is a day to laugh at your shortcomings because you are casting all your cares on Jesus. He really does care for you!

If you have no failures, please pass this message along to someone who is human. They might benefit from thought that they are not alone in world.

There is a another saying which I would like to share with you……

“Attitudes are Contagious…..make sure YOURS is worth catching”.

Motivational speakers don’t preach depression and negativity - but complete opposite. And they all know that often it’s easier to remain in ‘rut’ - than long, hard struggle to get out, and change….. to change yourself and your outlook on life and others around you.

Take a few minutes to look at small children. Appreciate their naivety and their simplistic and carefree approach to life.

They also have an obvious lack of pressures, commitments and responsibilities that we may have, they don’t have to work, pay bills, cook, clean, keep everyone else happy….but we can all still learn a valuable ’Life-Lesson’ from them.

There are few extremely priceless resources that will definitely help achieve PMA. All of them can be mass-produced, but are often in short supply. Every single one of these incredible resources will cost you absolutely nothing.

So what are they?

1. Smiles. (massively contagious) 2. Laughter. (see above) 3. A good sense of humor. (see above) 4. Politeness. 5. Good manners. 6. Consideration of others. And so on.

Remember - All of them can be mass-produced, but are often in short supply.

Can you see where I going with this? Simplicity itself. But effective and efficient. Just as with dieting, success can be achieved over longer term, without major cost, or huge mind-blowing changes, especially as many people are resistant to change - so make it gradual, step-by-step.

As all good sales people know, to sell product, first sell idea - get customer to ‘buy in’ to concept, and your almost there.

To achieve a Positive Mental Attitude, you often will find it necessary to try and persuade others to ‘buy in’……. but first it is YOU who must do so.

I will leave you with one last phrase.

Where it originates - I have no idea. But it is something I encountered a number of years ago, and has been with me ever since. If you take time to think about it, to consider it deeply, it can be quite profound and often enlightening.

You can use it as part of your PMA……….

“Your Life……. Is someone else’s DREAM”.
